Thanks Jouni for your answer.

I tried the fast_provisioning=1 option for phase1. When I ran the
supplicant, it bailed out during eap_fast_init step. It correctly sets
the provisioning_allowed flag to 1, but goes ahead to load pac file (
eap_fast_load_pac) and fails as the config->pac_file is null. Do i
need to get updated wpa_supplicant or am I missing something else?
Thanks,
